The Best Banana Cake in the World!!!!!!

This banana cake's official name is "Banana Bread", but its not a bread, its a cake! Its so deliciously good, I can't even explain it. My family has been making it for 3 generations, and I am the 4th generation to make this cake. Here is the secret family recipe:

Banana Cake
Makes a cake

1 stick of butter
1 1/4 cup of sugar
2 eggs
4 tablespoons of sour cream
1 teaspoon of baking soda
1 1/2 cups of flour
1/2 teaspoon of baking powder
1 cup of very ripe mashed bananas (about 3 bananas)
1 teaspoon of vanilla.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

Grease a bundt pan or a tube pan with crisco and flour. Shake off the excess flour.

Cream the butter and sugar in a mixer or with a hand mixer.
Add the eggs.

Mix the flour, baking powder in a bowl, and set aside.

Mix together in another bowl the sour cream, and baking soda.

Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture 1/2 at a time.
Add 1/2 of the sour cream mixture to the butter mixture, and cream until nice and smooth.
Add the rest of the flour and sour cream.

Add the vanilla and bananas, and mix until everything is nicely mixed together.

Put the batter in the pan, and put in the oven for 35-40 minutes, or until golden brown, and still soft to the touch.

Flip it over when the cake pulls away from the sides.

Smell the cake when it comes out of the oven… it smells delicious!!!!!!!!
Enjoy with some peanut butter… YUM.
